The first half ended goalless, with both teams struggling to break the deadlock. United dominated possession with 17 shots, but only managed two on target. Fulham appeared to create more significant chances throughout the match and continued to press before Cunha's late equalizer.
Álvaro Arbeloa's Fulham is still seeking its first league win this season, now having drawn against both Liverpool and Manchester United. United, on the other hand, has accumulated five points from their first five games, a disappointing start considering expectations from last season when they finished third.
Cunha noted that after conceding the first goal, United played with more urgency but emphasized the need for such performance from the start of the match. Despite recent frustrations, there are calls for patience regarding the team's performance under manager Michael Carrick, given the early stage of the season.
